<div dir="ltr">For what its worth, I figured out that the problem was related to how the music data was stored. The music was being kept on an ext3-formated second partition of the SD card. Despite having the correct references in fstab and Qtopia's Storage.conf, the data was not being read correctly. I could, however, play the music through gstreamer directly and using madplay. When I changed to a single partition, fat-formatted data store everything magically worked. I have not done any additional testing to see whether it was the partitioning or formatting, but I could if anyone is interested. <br>

<div dir="ltr">Using the 2008.08 testing repository from zecke, both the openmoko and qtopia media players throw gstreamer errors on my device when trying to play audio. Possibly related, the qtopia player can not read mp3 tag information (all tracks are "unknown").<br>
<br>I have not had time to look into the cause for this yet. Has anyone else experienced this and possibly fixed it? Could it be a package or configuration related issue? <br clear="all"><br></div></blockquote></div><div>
<br>You know what's weird? Before applying the updates from Zecke's testing branch today, neither of the openmoko or qtopia mediaplayers were working for me. OM was either throwing up gstreamer errors or did not seem to do anything, and the qtopia one didn't play anything and didn't even quit.<br>
<br>After the updates and installing mplayer, both are working. The QMP takes a while after starting and some cyclic pressing of > - || - > buttons for an mp3 file to play. You could try to reinstall the gstreamer plugins.<br>
<br>I still wonder what has happened to openmoko-mediaplayer2's volume button. And why the FR doesn't have the most basic buttons: call pickup, call reject, and volume control.<br></div></div></div>
